Something you may not know about Ami is that she is a perfume junkie. When she's rich enough to have a vanity career someday (a girl can dream!) she will move to Paris and become a Nose -- a certified, smell expert. Until then, she is content spending all her disposable income on fancy perfume…

Aside from being a very sound-sensitive person, I'm also pretty scentsitive, if you catch my drift. And since we work in an open plan office, and can't control the noises and smells around us, I've discovered a helpful little tool to make my workspace as calming and peaceful as possible. Aircraft ScentSticks come…

I watched this video like five times trying to understand what's going on here. Apparently, Swallowable Parfum is a real product that's being developed by Aussies Lucy McCrae and Sheref Mansy. The digestible, scented caplet, once absorbed into the system, is supposed to enable the skin to act as a perfume atomizer, allowing fragrance to…

Don't be confused. "Spy Kids: All the Time in the World," starring Jessica Alba and Joel McHale, is not a 3D movie—it's actually 4D. Director Robert Rodriguez is bringing it to you in "Aroma-Scope." In other words, movie-goers will get scratch n' sniff cards that have them smelling scents that correspond with specific scene…

Though we've had scented markers for years, apparently the everything-should-be-fragrant concept is enjoying a bit of a re-birth, and giving products their own scent has become the newest fashion trend. The world was just recently introduced to scented nail polish, and now one brand decided to throw a little odor onto their eyeglasses. Le…

When I was a kid, I loved those smelly markers so much that I refused to color with them for fear they would run out of scent. Obviously, they eventually dried up, but not before I forgot about them and moved on to a different obsession. Revlon hasn't forgotten how much girls like scented product…

Confession time: I'm a huge Eva Longoria Parker fan. Every Sunday during "Desperate Housewives," my girl crush on Gabrielle Solis gets just a little bit bigger. But when I heard the news that she's joining the celeb-turned-designer brigade and creating her very own perfume, I was a little disheartened. Unlike some actresses who tur…

Personally, I loathe perfume ads in magazines. It's impossible to tell what the scent actually smells like, because after languishing on the glossy page between a hundred other fragrances, the original essence is gone. But the magazine mono.kultur #23 decided that I'm wrong, and chose to create their latest issue entirely out of…

Most women have heard that body odors play a role in sexual attraction. I mean, why else would we spend money on pheromone-laced oils? Oh, maybe that was just me. Anyway, did you realize that being in love affects our perception and processing of body odors? According to a study performed in Montreal, women who…

As you slog your way through the myriad not-yet-April Fools' Day pranks that plague this nation, revel in this: no one has ever pranked someone better than Michael Jackson pranked Russell Crowe, and he did it for years.
